  /**
   * Finds routes that may potentially match the request.
   *
   * This may return a mixed list of class instances, but all routes returned
   * must extend the core Symfony route. The classes may also implement
   * RouteObjectInterface to link to a content document.
   *
   * This method may not throw an exception based on implementation specific
   * restrictions on the url. That case is considered a not found - returning
   * an empty array. Exceptions are only used to abort the whole request in
   * case something is seriously broken, like the storage backend being down.
   *
   * Note that implementations may not implement an optimal matching
   * algorithm, simply a reasonable first pass.  That allows for potentially
   * very large route sets to be filtered down to likely candidates, which
   * may then be filtered in memory more completely.
   *
   * @param \Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request $request
   *   A request against which to match
   *
   * @return \Symfony\Component\Routing\RouteCollection
   *   All Routes that could potentially match $request.
   *   Empty collection if nothing can match

   * list of those Route instances it found.
   *
   * This method exists in order to allow performance optimizations. The
   * simple implementation could be to just repeatedly call
   * $this->getRouteByName() while catching and ignoring eventual exceptions.
   *
   * If $names is null, this method SHOULD return a collection of all routes
   * known to this provider. If there are many routes to be expected, usage of
   * a lazy loading collection is recommended. A provider MAY only return a
   * subset of routes to e.g. support paging or other concepts.
